Jerry Lee Lewis - Walk A Mile In My Shoes Lyrics

If I could be you and you can be me for just one hour
If you could find a way to get inside each other's mind
If you could see you through my eyes instead your own ego
I believe you'd be so surprised to see that you've been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Now your whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of Karma says, 'You reap just what you sow'
So unless you've lived a life of total perfection
You'd better be careful of every stone, Lord, that you throw

Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

And yet we spend the whole day throwing stones at one another
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair the same way that you do
(You better listen to me now)
Well, I may be common people but I'm still your brother
And when you strike out and try to hurt me, you hurt your own self too

Just walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
And before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Yes, there are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
And brother, there but for the grace of God go you and I
If I only had the wings of a little angel
Don't you know, I'd fly to the top of the big ol' mountain?
And Jerry Lee would cry

Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Oh, walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Yeah, walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Walk a mile in my shoes
(Walk a mile in my shoes)
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes
